A slightly longer post encapsulating things, I guess.

Good news: I am completely at baseline, am making steady progress bridging my oldest son into adulthood although he will continue to need lifelong assistance, and am waiting until Thanksgiving holiday and the following weekend are… done with before I call my primary care physician about possibly, probably needing to be put on Plavix (aspirin is a no-go for me for a number of reasons and has been untenable for years), and touching base with a neurologist about my epilepsy rather than having him handle it as admirably as he has handled it in the past. I don’t mind this as long as I don’t get the most recent neurologist I had before I switched migraine care to the local pain management clinic, because all she did was throw triptans at me telling me that I would “have to get used to the (migraine) pain” when triptans are contraindicated in people with cardiovascular issues and this was something that she did not even bother attempting to look at or confirm, come to find out that triptans were causing significant problems in me unrelated to my migraines and that I shouldn’t ever have been put on them in the first place. But no, it was triptan after triptan from her, and I’m glad not to have been in her care for as many years now as I… haven’t. I’d really like that to continue.

That’s all I can think of to update this with right now so I suppose I’ll update with more when I think of more!

I mean, I feel like I should post an update to this.

The pinched nerve in my back is… strangely back, and I’m waiting for NSAIDs with Benadryl to help.

Maybe they will. Maybe they won’t. At the least it became something to try because of how bad the pain is.

In the meantime, I’m submitting my family’s wish lists to the wish list sites that I’ve participated in for I don’t even know how many years any more. I may link the sites here for people who may want to utilize them, as there are people who only really use the blog site they’re on to participate in this wish list gifting (what do you call it? is there a more formal name for it?) who otherwise do not participate on the site. I’ll probably also compile and post our wish lists up here as well for people that read my blog, as there are some people who I know do that and don’t participate in other blogging sites. This has become a lot of fun and I simply love it!
